This property is a renovated townhouse situated in the municipality of Nerja, within the La Axarquía region. Located at an elevation of approximately 700 meters above sea level, the residence commands expansive panoramic views of the coastline and the hinterland. With a living area of 120 m² and a south-facing orientation, the home accommodates two bedrooms and one bathroom. The location combines the tranquility of a rural setting with proximity to the Mediterranean Sea, with the coast situated about 4 kilometers away as the crow flies.
Key characteristics of location, homes, project phase and points of attention.
The residence is located in a rural setting outside the immediate city center of Nerja. At an elevation of 700 meters above sea level, the site offers a dominant position with views over the surrounding mountains and the sea. The immediate environment is characterized by peace and open spaces, providing a contrast to the busier coastal strip. The access road to the property traverses a natural landscape, contributing to reduced noise levels from the town.
With 120 m² of space distributed over multiple levels, this object suits needs focused on spatiality and diversity in living areas. The presence of two bedrooms and one bathroom positions the home as a suitable option for couples or small families who do not require a large bedroom suite. The private terraces and open view meet the desire for outdoor living space and privacy without direct oversight from neighbors.
This is an existing property in an excellent state of maintenance. There is no new construction phase; the property is available for immediate occupancy. Technical installations, including air conditioning, are already in place. Due to its existing status, there are no construction risks or completion delays associated with new developments.
Given the elevation of 700 meters and the distance of 63 kilometers to the airport, this home is less suitable for those requiring daily access to rapid international connections. The steep 17% gradient to the beach means the coast is not walkable for pedestrians; a car is essential. Additionally, the home has only one bathroom, which may be a limitation for larger groups.

This project fits buyers who are actively willing to drive for amenities and who prefer elevated, quiet living over immediate beachfront access. It is relevant for individuals seeking recreational use of a property with a permanent panoramic feel. The layout suits a single person, a couple, or a small family. Those with mobility issues may find the multiple levels challenging. The location is also less suitable for those wishing to rely on public transport as their primary mode of mobility.
The home features a fireplace in the living room, indicative of traditional construction with character elements. The presence of air conditioning enhances comfort during the hot Andalusian summers. The bathroom is fitted with a shower and sink, a standard but functional finish. The kitchen is fully fitted, indicating immediate habitability without long renovation timelines. Exterior maintenance and the community garden are described as excellent, suggesting an active homeowners' association. The finish is solid but not luxurious, focusing on functionality and ease of maintenance.
The asking price is set at €359,000. Compared to projects in more westerly areas like Mijas or Fuengirola, this price point is significantly lower for comparable living space. The pricing reflects the rural location and the necessity of transport. There are no extra costs for complex amenities like elevators or security gates, potentially keeping monthly running costs lower. The home is fully furnished, offering savings on interior setup.
The daily rhythm here is defined by the interplay of silence and views. Mornings are characterized by sunlight on the south-facing terraces. Due to the elevation, a cooling breeze is often present, even during the hot summer months. Amenities such as a supermarket (4.5 km) and restaurants are accessible, though require a vehicle. Evenings can be spent on private terraces overlooking the illuminated coastline of Nerja, where the silence of the rural environment is dominant. The building density is low, offering a sense of seclusion. For recreation, residents rely on beaches like Burriana or Maro, a few minutes' drive away.
The surroundings are marked by the absence of direct neighboring properties, ensuring openness. The road connects to local infrastructure linking Nerja to the A-7 coastal highway. With 3,937 hours of sunshine annually, the region supports outdoor living for a significant part of the year. Nearby beaches hold Blue Flag status, indicating clean water and facilities. The presence of 125 sports facilities in the municipality offers options for active residents. The proximity to Mirador Tajo de los Bueyes (3.0 km) provides a specific spot for nature enjoyment.
The map shows the positioning of the property in the relief around Nerja. Note the contour lines confirming the elevation at 700 meters above sea level. The marked distances to the coastline and the nearest village are measured as the crow flies.
Nerja is located in the eastern Costa del Sol, at the foot of the Sierra de Tejeda mountains. The project lies within a rural setting towards the national park. Compared to the western coast, this region is less developed and built-up. The eastern positioning ensures a longer travel time to Malaga City but offers a more open landscape. The border with the province of Granada is nearby, allowing for excursions to locations like Salobreña.

Compared to projects like Arosa in Mijas (from €490,000) and Waterfall Residences in Fuengirola (from €720,000), this object in Nerja offers a lower entry price. While those projects are often part of large-scale developments near the sea, this project offers the tranquility of the hinterland. Astra Homes in Fuengirola (from €364,000) is comparable in price, but the location differs fundamentally: Fuengirola is urban and flat, whereas Nerja is hilly and more rural. Buyers must weigh whether the lower price and views outweigh the longer travel time to the airport and the necessity of a car.
